Top-50 QB's - BostonCard - 02-07-2017

This was touched upon in Wilber's analysis, but here's another piece noting that roughly half of top-50 QB's wind up transferring.
These analyses are always a bit difficult, because you never know if a QB fails because he simply wasn't that good, or was good but got stuck behind a better QB. Still, it does suggest that our miss rate is not that out of line.

It seems like BC might be referencing this article I read this morning, but since I can't find it linked anywhere on the Board, I thought I'd drop the link here. Apologies if I missed it. Anyway, it's an interesting read on how Stanford recruits -- and retains -- its quarterbacks.
